Title
Early-medieval stirrup: Stirrup-strap mountq
Description
English: A complete cast copper alloy stirrup-strap mount, dating from the late early-medieval period (11th century). The mount can be described as Williams (1997) Class A, no Type. Sub-pentagonal in form, the mount has an engraved surface, mostly confined to the upper half of the mount and consisting of swirls and diagonal and horizontal lines. The identification of the design is uncertain although it bears similarities to Williams (1997) Figs 20 and 28, and also Type 15. The apex of the mount is finished with a pendant lobe while the flange is set at a right angle on the reverse.
